"I'm sorry … .I… I didn't intend to do this young master." Stelcy's voice blared in the air, causing a hint of pandemonium to set in the hall. Sophia turned to her with an angry tone, she yelled. "Can you get down the podium, Ma… You should be allowed to rot in jail for conspiracy and dent of reputation… How could you accept to do such a thing like that?" She scowled. Kendrick's mind quicked when he saw the shame that settled on Mr. Sparrow's face, he smiled a bit when he lowered his head to the ground. "I can't believe this, I'm so disappointed!! He yelled at Elvis and Alexander, who were standing by the other side of the podium, ready for Kendrick's final decision on what would be their fate. Kendrick turned to Dr. Astrid and Ben Martins, and shook hands with them, directing them to return to their seats. Surprise pitched on the faces of the Petersons, they had almost believed that Kendrick was guilty, but for the presence of Mr. Ben Martin and the footage. Crowther q
When Kendrick was done, it was time for him to conclude and get to the next event of the day, so he shook hands with Astrid and her team and gestured for them to return to their seats.Then he turned to the group who watched surprisingly, "Ladies and gentlemen, I want to welcome you all to a new era, as it stands…. I would first of all ask each and every one of you who signed this agreement to walk forward and redeem it!" His voice sounded firm and confident. There was a moment of silence when Maradona and the other members of the family who had pridefully signed the document stood up walking towards the podium. Kendrick could see Sparrow's hands shaking as he approached.The other sat, watching the scene unfold before their very eyes. They couldn't believe it had gone to that extent. "So they even went to the point of staking their assets to bring this man down?" One of the extended family members, Ethan asked in awe. Then shrugged his shoulders.Sparrow was the first to start, Flo
Inside the Peterson's mansion, Kendrick had earned his place and respect. Immediately he stepped into the house, his phone blared aggressively.Kendrick's hand instinctively reached for his phone, his mind racing with anticipation. But as he gazed at the caller ID, his curiosity turned to confusion. Eric Templar - a name that stirred a faint memory, yet remained elusive. His hesitation was momentary, and he answered with a calm, "Hello?" he said in a calm tone, but then a sharp yell of a deep male voice made him stutter. "I wouldn't want to linger around,... I called to warn you, to stay away from her!.. I won't say this again, stay… stay away from her if you like your life." Kemdrick's eyes widened, he couldn't imagine the weight of words he used. His thoughts raced with questions, "Stay away from her?" He asked himself, but the last time he remembered, Sophia was just his business partner, so he replied in a calm tone."Who is this and who are you asking me to stay away from?"
It was interesting turnaround of events, it was a great comeback. After what he had done to Alexander, this was the only way to humiliate him further. “Dad, go in and continue your meal, I'll be back shortly.” Kendrick said, winking at his father.“Commissioner of Police, who had such connections to involve the Commissioner with such short notice and appear with a warrant?” Mr. Peterson thought aloud.“It's Louis, Alexander new girlfriend and Kendrick's ex.” Evelyn said, eyeing Louis maliciously.“Dad, don't worry, he'll be fine. Kendrick always sorts himself.” Emily said, holding his hands reassuringly.“I want to see the girl who's causing my son harm, where is she?” Mr. Peterson bellowed, scattering his eyes around.“It is I you seek. Kendrick will suffer for whatever he's done to my boyfriend.” Louis blurted, glaring at him.“Have you got so empathy, Alexander killed my wife, his mother and you defend him outrightly. What kind of demon are you?” Mr. Peterson asked bitterly.“The
He had conquered one and here was another, Eric Templar. It was difficult not to know the Templars especially as a business man in the state dealing with millions everyday. The Templar family was a complicated one and in all thy doings always seek to be in their favour. Very interesting now, he had incurred the heir to the Templar dynasty's wrath and might have to pay for it.It was a drug cartel that his it heinous crimes under the sale of automobiles and enormous machines. They transported their goods through this car in and out of the country through this machines, vehicles and equipments and of course they had some help. The Templar family one in every four government official of the state and financially aided the campaigns of past and present officers so the customs and immigration were under his leadership.They wielded enough power to light up a country, they were in charge. Kendrick knew one policeman in which he instructed to watch his family house and protect his family me
"When next you badge into someone's office, always ensure that you knock!! … Is that okay?" Kendrick exclaimed in a deep tone, his voice carrying the weight of the boss that he was. But then, Eric Templar laughed hysterically. "You mean, you can give orders to a man of my kind without thinking a second time?... Are you sure that you ain't stepping on the wrong foot?" He snarled, his eyes locked onto Kendrick's. Sophia watched in awe, she had never seen Kemdrick's face crunched up like that, she was dumbfounded, she knew he was angry, as much as she wanted things to end with Templar, she never wanted Kendrick to take the matter himself, so she interfered, her voice came with a soft hum. " Can you please calm down Kendrick?... I'll handle this from here." Her eyes turned slowly and settled on Templar'. "What do you want from me?... I have told you that I've got a lot in my hands and being in a relationship would be the last thing I can think of right now." "What did you just
Sophia seemed to have noticed the sudden change on his face, so she asked quickly."What's that?" Her eyes furrowed slightly.Kendrick waved gently, "it's nothing Sophia." "But at one point, you seemed disturbed." Sophia pressed on.Kendrick shook his head gently, then raised his eyes slowly. "It's not a serious issue… .just a notification from my friend, Charles, telling me that Alex is released, and his father, J Ryder is also released." Sophia's jaw dropped, she couldn't imagine that after they had reported Alex of being corrupt, he was still released? Confusion clouded her eyes. "That's not possible,... Released?... after all he did?" She exclaimed surprisingly.Kemdrick's tone was calm, he nodded. "Ofcourse, but again… that's nothing. His wife is pregnant, … I think that should be the reason for the decision." Sophia's eyes rolled, "What does that have to do with locking up a man as corrupt as those men? … That shouldn't be a valid excuse." She sighed loudly. " At least, he
"What were you doing that you didn't rush out when I came in earlier?" She asked. Iris stuttered, her voice cracking with tension."I…I am sorry Ma, I was busy in the kitchen." "That's fine, get those boxes upstairs… What of my husband?... I know he is not in, right?" Iris's voice trembled, he couldn't explain that there was another woman upstairs, her eyes clouded with shock, she stammered."Sir.. sir, was out since morning, and he hasn't returned yet." Mrs. Alex seemed to decode the stuttering, she sat up instantly, her eyes fixed on Iris' face."What's the problem with you?... Are you alright?" She asked curiously."No.. I mean, Yes Ma, I'm fine." Iris forced a smile, her lips curved a bit, but the words were heavy, they came in a low tone. "That's fine, when you go… ensure you get me water to drink, is Khanny still working here? … . If yes, please tell him to bring me the box in my room, there's a key in the side of the bag, you can use it to unlock the room." She replied, g
